I would note that Trump’s unexpected attacks against Venezuela and Iran have added to his own personal version of the “madman theory.”
Nobody knows what Trump will do in the near future. Nicolás Maduro thought so little of President Trump that he mocked him with a little dance. He’s probably not dancing in his cell in the Metropolitan Detention Center this morning.
Last October, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei sneered that Trump’s speech to the Knesset was “empty words” and “buffoonery.”
The ayatollah could not be reached for comment, nor could his son.
President Trump knows exactly what he is doing. Trump is crazy. Crazy like a fox. [Jim Geraghty, Washington Post]
Good Night, Patriots!

The only way for Republicans to win is to make it harder for Americans to vote...
Republicans in Congress are pressing to effectively ban mail-in voting, following President Trump’s exhortation to do away with a practice that he says is “rigged” but that has become increasingly common in U.S. elections and is the chief method of voting in multiple states.
The Republican-written voter identification measure that passed the House and is under consideration in the Senate could place severe limits on mail-in voting. But a proposal by a bloc of hard-right Republicans would go even further, by prohibiting universal vote-by-mail with narrow exceptions for military service, travel, disability, and medical issues and other hardships.
Neither has a clear path to passage, with Democrats solidly opposed and even some Republicans balking at the added restrictions on voting by mail. But with the president and his allies in Congress pressing for it, many G.O.P. lawmakers have enthusiastically taken up the cause.
Don't let your hate blind you dumbo!
